Covering the Eyes for Relaxation

Listed by the publisher as “Covering the Eyes: Unwinding the Body Pattern of Anxiety”

This guided movement lesson focuses on relaxing the visual system while lying on the back. Participants practice covering their eyes to seek complete darkness, tracking imaginary objects with the eyes closed, and using the eyelids to gently press on the eyeballs. The session concludes by slowly reintegrating vision and transitioning to sitting and standing.
